Ms. Yasuko Nanba (climber) and Mt. Everest

*Quote source image: Reprinted from the image of promotion photo for movie “EVEREST”

Ms. Yasuko Nanba succeeded in climbing Mt. Everest on May 10, 1996, but the following day, she died in bad weather during the descent. I learned this from the movie “EVEREST”.

I only saw the sunrise from the EVEREST observation deck on the outskirts of Kathmandu, Nepal, but she was longing for climbing the highest peak in the world.

I wanted to have the heart of a mountaineer, who bet on it, but I couldn’t, however I have respect and admiration for her mountaineering life. When asked “Why climb?”, The answer is (because there is a mountain) and Ms. Nanba’s answer is (because it is the 7th highest challenge on the 7 continents of the world). I was impressed by the words such as “if not it will become a sin.”

Many mountaineers are climbing with the support of sponsors, but Ms. Nanba was a “salary woman mountaineer” and she worked hard for her own expense. I also feel her splendour there.

The impression of watching the movie is an inspiring movie, which has a three-dimensional effect and power, and it is a wonderful image to worry that the cameraman of this movie was more severe than the actor who plays the role of a mountaineer. There were many wonderful scenes in the film.

Also, because it was a publicly recruited mountaineering team in New Zealand and the United States, all conversations were in English.  The communications technologies are well fully in use, and I was impressed by that the contacts with the base camp, and the conversations between the families and the climbers. Those made me cry while watching.  It was a true story, and a very good movie.

  1. I want to express my appreciation to the writer for bailing me out of such a circumstance. Because of checking through the world-wide-web and obtaining suggestions which were not powerful, I was thinking my entire life was gone. Being alive without the presence of answers to the difficulties you have sorted out by way of your review is a critical case, and those which could have badly damaged my career if I had not come across your blog. Your skills and kindness in touching all things was crucial. I am not sure what I would’ve done if I hadn’t come upon such a subject like this. I am able to at this time relish my future.
